Storms causes tree to fall on local business

William Townsend, an employee of the Benton Street Department, uses a chain saw to slice a large piece of a tree that fell and struck Roberson & Associates Insurance Agency on Sunday night on North Market Street in Benton. It is unclear if straight-line winds or lightning caused the damage. Numerous trees and structures were damaged in the severe thunderstorms that swept across Central Arkansas on Sunday.
